The market for masks is competitive market and is in long-run equilibrium. Describe what happens in this market as COVID-19 and people demand for masks and the process that eventually leads to a new long-run.
Before COVID, market of mask was in long run equilibrium. Sudden rise in demand of mask due to COVID-19 will shift demand curve to its right from AD to AD1 while keep supply as same because it is not possible to increase supply overnight. It will result in rise in price from P to P1 while output rise from Y to Y1.
In long run, producers will increase supply of mask to complete demand of mask which increased in short run. It will shift aggregate supply of mask in long run which will reduce price to its initial level of P while raise output level further.

The smartphone market is in long-run equilibrium. Then the demand for smartphones increases. Describe what happens in the market for smartphones. In the short-run firms will ___ A. make an economic profit B. incur and economic loss C. continue to break even Some firms will ___ the market, and the market supply curve will shift __. A. exit; rightward B. enter; leftward C. enter; rightward D. exit; leftward
2. Describe what happens to output, price, and economic profit in the short run and in the long run in a competitive market following: a) An increase in demand. b) A decrease in demand. c) The adoption of a new technology that lowers production costs.

3. Suppose the market for rolled oats is perfectly competitive and is in a long-run equilibrium. For the following. be sure to carefully label your graphs and use subscripts as we have done in class! You can give your answers for each part on the same graphs. a. Draw the graphs below that illustrate the market and a representative firm in the initial long-run equilibrium (use the subscript 1 to denote each curve). What profits is the representative firm earning?...
2) Suppose we observe a perfectly competitive industry in long-run equilibrium when there is a permanent decrease in demand for the industry's product. a) Using graphs explain how the industry adiusts to a new long-run equilibriumm. b) What happens to price, quantity, firm profits and the number of firms during the adiustment process?
i) The long run cost function for each firm in a perfectly competitive market is c(q) = 2^1.5+16q^0.5, LMC = 1.59^0.5+ 8q^-0.5, market demand curve is Q=1600-2p. Find price (p) of output and the level of output (q) produced by the firm in a long run equilibrium. Find the long run average cost curve for the firm. ii) what happens in the long run if the market demand curve shifts to Q=160-20p?/ -A competitive industry is in long run equilibrium....
Assume that the perfectly competitive market for ethanol is in long-run equilibrium. Now suppose that the price of gasoline, a substitute for ethanol, increases. Explain what will happen in the market for ethanol. 1) Describe how this change will affect short-run economic profits. 2) What will happen to the number of firms producing ethanol in the long run? 3) How will price and output in this industry adjust in the long run?
2 - What is the short-term and long-term change to the long-run perfect competitive equilibrium as a result of a negative shock to demand side of market (left shift of demand). Explain graphically and in plain English what next is going to happen in this market.
Suppose that all existing firms in a long-run competitive market equilibrium are identical and have the following cost function C(Q)= 1002 with MC(Q)=2Q. Suppose also that market demand is given by P(Q)=A-0.04Q, where A-40.0. What is the equilibrium market quantity? No units, no rounding. Your Answer: Your Answer
